As of the newest version of RetroArch, Mednafen PSX cannot find any of my old memory card files anymore.
It would appear that, previously, for some reason, RetroArch would store memory card files in the system folder with all of the BIOS files, and they’d look like this:
Spyro the Dragon (USA).c23d9f30b1fccb15c38d50f3d2dc1f62.0.mcr
As of the newest version of RetroArch/Medafen PSX (1.4.1), RetroArch is now looking for the memory card files in the same folder as all of the other game SRAM. Furthermore, the files it generates are completely different. Now, the save files look like this:
Spyro the Dragon (USA).0.mcr Spyro the Dragon (USA).srm
I figured maybe I could just move all my files manually and rename them, but no matter what I do, Mednafen would rather start a new file and ignore the ones I currently have. This is obviously quite distressing, because it means something like ten games have had all of their progress dunked in the garbage.
Am I doing something wrong or just out of luck? I really hate it when stuff like this changes so drastically.
